Holy Super Image, Batman!

I thought about trying a dandelion wine and then had a sudden thought that maybe a mead would be interesting. Looks like someone already beat me to it!

That stuff looks very nice, so I might go for it after all. If I can get the kids to help me pick petals...

Dandelions in Texas right now. I think Im going to do thisas well. Ive already picked and deflowered them.. and can confirm that once the flowers retract, they are a raging PITA to deal with.... I picked from two different locations.. I may have picked up about half catsear (false dandelion), but Im not sure. Ive got OB honey, but was thinking about using dates rather than raisins (they are for body anyway)... it is blood orange season and thought about going that route as well.

Made a dandelion ginger mead. Just kinda threw it together. Just used dandelions and ginger. Steeped for 5 days and then strained and boiled in honey. (4lbs) per gal. Pitched with baking yeast and nutrient. ferm. Going well interested to see how it turns out
